Is Trump in a corner over Epstein files?

For years, Trump and his MAGA base blamed the deep state for the cover-up of unreleased details about disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.They accused the Biden administration of suppressing the extent of Epstein's paedophilia, predatory behaviour and his so-called "client list" - thought to contain names of the rich and famous who conspired with him in a child sex trafficking operation.So far, so conspiracy theory. But now, Trump officials who previously said with certainty that the list exists are claiming it doesn't.The people who stood beside Trump as he decried the deep state aren't happy. They want the files. Where have they gone?If you've got a question you'd like the Trump100 team to answer, you can email it to trump100@sky.uk.You can also watch all episodes on our YouTube channel.
